Ghosts of the Hurtgen Forest WW2 | Unexplained Figure Captured on Camera

Spread The Viralist



Join me on a chilling journey deep into the Hürtgen Forest, one of the most haunted battlefields of World War II. Known by soldiers as The Meat Grinder, Green Hell, and The Ghost Maker, this infamous forest was the site of one of the longest and bloodiest battles in U.S. military history. Thousands of lives were lost here, and many believe the Hürtgenwald is still haunted by the restless spirits of those who died in combat. Although this was not a formal paranormal investigation, something unexplained happened as I was leaving the forest—something I captured on camera. Was it a ghost, a spirit of a fallen soldier, or something else entirely? Whatever or whoever it was, it was creepy! If you’re fascinated by haunted places, war ghost stories, or the paranormal side of WWII, you won’t want to miss this haunted WWII site.

  1. My folks and I lived in the Netherlands from 1966 through 1969. I visited the Hurtgen Forest with a Dutch friend. He showed me where there were still pieces of rope from where Nazi soldiers tied themselves to the trees to snipe on American soldiers. I am wondering whether there are any still there. I cannot tell you the precise locations where they were, but they gave me an eerie feeling knowing that American GI's were being shot at from the trees. Also, if you get the chance, go to the Auschwitz Concentration Camp. That is where I had my first paranormal experience; the spirits of those who died in the Camp are still there.

  2. Superb and a very respectful video.

    I've been through the area many times, but never stopped to pay any attention (either travelling to Bastogne, or Foy or Spa for a race) or taken time to look around. Now it's definitely on my must visit list!

    As an ex British army veteran, who had a grandfather killed in Normandy and friends killed in Afghanistan, I always find visiting areas like this is an emotional and spiritual time. I visited the German cemetery near Foy, with a German friend who served in the German Army in Afghanistan, and he told me the same.. a truly emotional and spiritual visit.

    The guy at the end? Probably a local, giving you space to pay your respects and keep out of your way.

  3. Another great video, very interesting and informative , a very sad place, war has no winners in my view, so much is always lost, and I pray the poor souls still lost will one day be found. Stay safe and I look forward to your next video.

  4. Thank you Bryan. Thank you for the lesson, the video and for honoring those who lost their lives. Leaving the coins was a wonderful gesture of respect for both the Americans and the Germans. After all, we are all just people. Thank you again.

  5. I'm a local resident of the Hürtgenwald, born and raised here. It's very truth, you will experience that negative, threatening or Sometimes das energy in certain areas of the forest or on dirtroads through the fields and meadows. At times the feeling of being watched is obvious. In the night or when it's really foggy you may hear the sound of war. Two things happened to me, where i'm sure that WW2 soldiers we're involved. And i wasn't even on a ghost hunt or thinking about the war at that moments… But i would like to add some more historical facts… For the american soldiers the name of the place sounds like the english Word "hurt" so the forest that hurts them was the association with the name. Before christmas the troops in both sides settle a truce to retrieve their dead and wounded comrades out of the war zone. A paranormal investigation could help them to understand that the war is over and they are allowed to go home. Besides it's bloody and heartbreaking history the Hürtgenwald is a beautyful place, with a lot of peaceful and stunning areas. I'm glad to live here and i'm also kind of happy when more people are aware of the event cause like you say, very few know about this longest and deadliest battle. But when you know, you can honor them now and perhaps this will help them finally cross over..

  6. I saw your comment on Dylans video and decided to check your channel out. I wasn't disappointed, this video is really interesting, I love learning about WW2 History. Thanks for this.

  7. Thank you so much. In addition to being a believer in the Paranormal, I'm also a huge history buff. I have a friend in Aachen. I hope to see it myself one day.

    A good movie about the battle is 'When trumpets fade'. An older HBO movie. It was eclipsed by the release of 'Saving private Ryan'.

  8. Thank you very much for sharing your impressions and feelings about the Hürtgen Forest with us. Thank you also for the gesture of laying medals at the memorial sites. I certainly didn’t expect a paranormal investigation. "Sad" describes it very well — there's still a lot left there.
    There are still many bunkers in the area; some were accessible even years ago. Suddenly finding yourself at the edge of an abyss is not unusual with German bunkers — I’ve experienced that more than once. When we explored the bunkers at Hallberg in Saarbrücken, I almost fell into a pit. Luckily, I was being careful, so I learned something that day.
    There’s an old map of the Hürtgen Forest in the Federal Archives where you can compare the paths. I believe many of the trails already existed during the war, but the well-developed one seems newer to me.

  9. Oh wow there was someone checking you out. That is creepy 😳 . Looks like a big man standing there with hands in his pockets. That was such a lovely thing to do leaving the coins and other ones with the two flags on them. I was noticing that to about when you saw movement in the treeline before you said anything.
    I wonder maybe you were getting dizzy from a spirit close to you when you were by the edge looking over the bunker and not because of being so high 🤔. Thanks again and I enjoyed and loved watching ! Can't wait for next video my friend !!!

  10. When I was stationed in Baumholder I had the opportunity to stand where WW2 German Officers and most likely A.H. stood. Just an area to watch the Artillery firing/ Military Training but it left a cold feeling like I didn't belong, even though no direct WW2 fighting took place there.

  11. Hey Bryan,

    Thank you for taking us through Hurtgen Forest. While you were walking and pondering the logistics of how troops and equipment made it through the dense forest, I read that many of those trees are roughly 50-years old and were placed after WW2. So, it might have been less dense in that area during the war. Most of my findings today were bugs, so I won't highlight them.

    At 45:15 the word "Jealousy" was heard from the app. I don't think it related to the memorial, but I wonder if the word related to the people in the forest you pointed out.

    As for the figure at the end, I paused at 55:17 and it appears to be a humanoid figure with two legs. The arms appear to be stuffed in a coat pocket. I didn't hear any breaking tree limbs, or other familiar noises, so it's completely odd to see someone or something performing reconnaissance.

  12. Thank you Bryan. I really like all your videos. The war videos is something else. have you ever gone to Gettysburg battlefield if thay lite you.

  13. Well done on the respect of not investigating the area. It’s a very somber sad place with lots of emotions. You did it a great job showing the place and its history! Bravo!

  14. My dad was stationed in the Italian apps during the war. They fought a three week battle against the Germans who were trying to get the not Italy through those mountains. This was the longest battle.

  15. Thank you for taking us here. So extremely sad for both sides. Both my German Grandfathers perished in that war. Never found out how and where. War is such a horrible thing. Just bought your book on Amazon too, Bryan. Looking forward to reading it. 🙂It's funny that you mentioned "foreboding" because that is exactly the word I thought of as you were first starting your explore of this sad area. I wonder who that was at the end hiding in the trees.

  16. Incredible and so moving. God rest their souls. It felt like they were all around in the trees. I am sure their spirits were touched and ours were too by their sacrifice and, it's so sad that remains are still being found to this day. Who was that watching you, human or ghost??

  17. Hello Bryan, it's simply wonderful how respectfully and empathetically you treat this place. I suddenly felt very sad. It's terrible that people simply can't live together in peace. So much suffering that shouldn't exist. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this video. It's taught me many things I didn't know before. At 44:52, I thought I saw movement behind you in the woods. But it was probably just cars.

  18. Love the history and the tour – thank you. As a Canadian, who has travelled to many Canadian battlefield sites in Europe, its really cool to see "new" sites (to me) through your eyes. What a tragic and somber place!

  19. Millions of buried land mines and 10s of thousands more that are still being found to this day! Though most of these mines are no longer a big threat due to decay and weather, but it's definitely not a guarantee that they're all bad by now? Yes Sir Bryan my great uncle lost his toes from frostbite being in the trenches of this battle over the coldest winter on record! Not only were they fighting themselves, but fighting Nature and the sub zero temps! Many men and young men gave their all in this place! Thanks for visiting this very special place for us. God Bless these men and yourself my friend. 😊❤

  20. You're back and I'm so glad because this made my day! I'm always checking waiting for your next epic adventure! I love the way you explain the history wherever you go and you're so respectful as well! Time to watch! ❤️
